Kanye & Amber partying it up




Kanye & girl Amber were spotted shopping in New York before going out and partying it up at the M2 Lounge. Definitely a fan of these two.

Body Image

After watching today's episode of 106 & Park, I started really thinking about body image and how much the media affects us as women. We strive so hard to look like these models, singers, or actresses and to be 'perfect' but why? Because we have such tainted images and definitions of what beauty is, a lot of us are hurting ourselves by dangerous dieting, undergoing surgeries to fix what we don't like, and we exercise to an alarming extent. My best friend of seven years has been talking about how much she wants liposuction, a tummy tuck, a breast lift, and all other kinds of procedures for the past three years and it baffles me. I asked her countless times why she wants all this stuff and she barely has a valid argument. I honestly think she saw some celebrity and is trying to imitate what she saw. She's striving towards perfect but that's impossible. No one is perfect and I wish people would understand that. She's even confessed to me that she's jealous of me because I'm light-skinned. I think its absolutely absurd for her to be jealous of me because of my skin color. She's what society would say is 'dark skinned' but I love her color. She's constantly saying she's 'black' but I don't see it. I love her brown complexion and the way she looks and I wish she would learn to love herself the way she is.

I've dealt with body image issues my whole life. I've never been fully satisfied with the way I look but I accept what I can't change and work to fix what I can. I wish I had long flowing hair but I don't. Even with all the different ethnicities in my family, I still have 'black hair'. When I was younger I used to get teased because my hair was so thick and coarse and having a mother who's a tomboy didn't help either. I kept my hair in braids for majority of a life and didn't learn how to properly take care of it until I was 15. Now my top priority is making sure my hair is healthy. I never liked my weight either. It's been up and down for as long as I can remember and I initially joined the track team in high school in hopes of losing weight. I was put through rigorous training six days a week, three hours a day. I stole diet pills like Xenadrine Ultra and took them all the time. I ate about two or maybe even one meal a day because I wanted my body to be 'perfect'. There have been so many times where I cried myself to sleep because I hated myself.

But hate gets you nowhere. I've learned to love myself the way I am and accept the fact that I'll never be a size 2. I love my hips, lips, thighs, skin, hair, breasts and butt. There's always room for improvement so exercise is a must but I don't overdue do it. Women, we must learn to love ourselves and stop striving to reach these unattainable goals. Most of us will never be Beyonce, Amber Rose, Alicia Keys, or whoever. We have to love what God blessed us with and learn to work it because we are fabulous in our own right.

two of my fav. girls

Ms. Amber Rose & Nicki Minaj. They were spotted hanging outside at the AMW (America's Most Wanted) concert. Loves these two.

Mmmm...Faboloso



WET PANTIES WEDNESDAY!

Hola! This week I'm very happy I found this beautiful specimen of a man. He currently plays for the Washington Redskins (he soooo needs to come to the Eagles) and I'm sure you've seen him for the tribute to "The Game" in the last issue of vibe. So here we go, the fourth edition of WPW featuring my new baby Devin Thomas.

Loso's Way Album Review

Just like I thought, this album is incredible. My baby Fabolous really took his time, recollected himself, and gave us a classic album. "Loso's Way" is full of enticing beats and hot lyrics and is his most personal album to date. A few of my personal favorites on the album are "I Miss My Love," "Stay" featuring the incredibly talented Marsha Ambrosius, "Last Time" featuring my other love Trey Songz, "I'mma Do It" featuring Kobe (no, not Kobe Bryant) and "Salute" featuring Lil' Wayne.

"Stay" has been stuck in my head all day. On the track Fabolous is telling how his father left him and how he wasn't much of a father to him. He also mentions his son, who he affectionally calls Joso. He tells of the precious moments he has with his son and how he doesn't have time for the industry's drama.

"Salute" is a certified banger. "Your highest title, numero uno, I'm not that little pregnant white girl but Juno..." I wanted to die when I heard that line. Fab went so hard on his verse and Wayne did his thing too but Fab owned this track. Wayne didn't say anything memorable on the track and his verse was kind of blah to me. The chorus was stuck in my head after I heard this song though. This is the type of track that you roll down your windows and bump in the car.

"Everything, Everyday, Everywhere" is another one of my favorites. It's Fab's newest single and everytime I hear it I wanna dance. It's definitely one of those songs that'll get your hips moving in the club. (If you haven't heard it or seen the video, I posted it down below)

I'm glad I decided to buy "Loso's Way" because it didn't disappoint me at all. I wish the "Throw it in the Bag" remix with Drake would've been on the album but its all good. You can definitely listen to this from start to finish without skipping anything. This album is well worth your money so go buy it, don't download it. And also don't forget to check out the movie with the same name as the album. Fabolous just put pressure on a lot of rappers to step their game up.

honorable mention.

Lawwwwdddd Teyana Taylor is a damn fool lmfaooo her and her friends Eli, Davon, and Matt remade Lil' Kim's "Big Momma Thang" They are hilarious! Teyana and them shorts and that wig had me crying.

hottest in the hood.

I told yall it was Loso's day. This is Red Cafe's official video for his single "Hottest in the Hood" I love this song but I like the remix better especially since Fab's on it. But he's featured in the video so whatever lol

everything, everyday, everywhere.

Fab's new video! Owwww! He's looking so good in it and then the cameo from the other hubby Trey...ugh, its too much sexy for one video.

LOSO'S DAY



FINALLY THE DAY HAS COME! Today, Fabolous' new highly anticipated album, "Loso's Way" is in stores along with the movie with the same name. (yes its a real movie) I am beyond excited for this album and I will be at the stores later to cop it. Everyone knows I love me some Fab. Today is all about him. Everyone go cop that "Loso's Way" because I guarantee you won't be disappointed. Owww!

reggie bush: SINGLE!


Yes yes, it is true. Reggie Bush and his girlfriend of 2 years, Ms. Kim Kardashian have called it quits. I have to admit, ever since he got with her, I totally wrote him off. I mean, I stopped watching Saints games, stopped looking at his pictures, didn't read anything about him on the blogs but NOW?! OHHHHBOYYYY I am such a Reggie supporter again. Since the news broke, he's gotten so much sexier to me. Kinda like Usher & Chris Brown...

ohmygod i loves it!

too cute for words. me and my husband better get it on our wedding day lol

God is so good...

Vibe magazine is doing a tribute to "The Game" in their final issue by putting R&B starlets and athletes together and SWEETBABYJESUS THESE ARE SOME FINE MEN! Screw the women lol

so blue.

farewell, my love.

I wasn't going to make a post about him but he is very much apart of my life. Or at least he was. Yesterday would've been me and D's one year anniversary but unfortunately we broke up on the 14th. My best friend hit me while i was at the Khalifa concert with Ari and told me she had just finished talking to him. Apparently he's been lying about his whereabouts. There's no doubt in my mind that he was in Iraq at one point because I've seen the pictures but just days before he told me he was still out there. I can't do it anymore. I'm so tired of the games, the lies, the BULLSHIT. I'm a damn good woman and would've and did do everything for him. I don't understand why he just can't be honest with me. I don't understand why all the men I've been with just can't be honest with me. Smfh...well I'm single again but not back on the prowl. I'm a serial monogamous but I'm so done for now. There won't be any rushing into another relationship, no guys on deck, I'm just gonna focus on me for a while and let love come to me when its ready. Until then...

bye bye love.

run this town

"Run This Town" the new joint by Jay-Z, Rihanna, and Kanye West is killing the radio right now. I absolutely, positively LOVE this song. Everyone did their thing on this song but Kanye went in on his verse. This song goes so hard and this is one of those songs that would be amazing to see performed in concert. I can only imagine what the vibe will be like when this is performed live. Rihanna sounds good on this record and I can't stop saying "heeeeyyyyyyyy!" If you haven't heard it, take a listen.

trey, my trey

i adore this man. he is so incredibly talented and sexy. he's featured in the new SMOOTH magazine and he looks just that. real smooth.

vegas baby!

Usher covers this month's Vegas magazine. Ever since ditching Tameka, he's been getting his sexy back. He's looking dapper and sexy in this issue.

gon getcha some!

Finally! Big Sean finally released his first video for his single "Getcha Some" and I'm so effin happy. I love Big Sean's sexy self and I love the video. All the colors, the animation..in a way it reminds me of Kanye's "Welcome to Heartbreak" video. It's like a mix of that, "Good Life" and Kid Cudi's "Day & Night." And of course Kanye makes an appearance in the video. If you don't know, Big Sean is signed to Kanye's G.O.O.D Music imprint and will hopefully be releasing his debut album "Finally Famous" sometime soon.

little miss sunshine

okay so everyone knows the internet went bonkers when rihanna's new do was debuted. she shaved the sides of her head but still had the hair on top. now from jump i didn't think it was that bad. i actually kinda liked it but i do feel like this short hair/shaving the head shit is getting old. its not anything new anymore. but rihanna was on the red carpet the other day and i have to say, i love the hair on her. hey, say what you want. chick is still bad.

damn homie

Well, I hope the joy of Nas' baby boy being here gets him over the pain of paying up to Kelis. The judge awarded Kelis with $55,000 a month, which Nas did NOT wanna pay her. He wanted to give her $5,000 but WHOMP WHOMP. You lose. But the icing on the cake came when the judge ordered Nas to pay for the Knight's nurse, prenatal expenses, medical insurance AND $35,000 to Kelis’ lawyer. BURN!

Nas, I suggest you go drown your sorrows in some good liquor.

i can do bad all by myself

check out the trailer for Tyler Perry's new movie, "I Can Do Bad All By Myself" starring Taraji P. Henson, Brian J. White, Adam Rodriguez (his fine ass) Mary J.Blige and the man himself, Mr. Tyler Perry as Madea. Some of you may have already seen the play version (which I loved too). the movie comes out September 11, 2009.

Amber Rose on Lip Service

The beautiful Amber Rose was on Lip Service with Angela Yee & Leah Rose before she was best known for being with Kanye. This interview just made me love her soo much more. (WARNING! explicit pics are shown so its NSFW!)

three inspirations.


Everyone knows (or should know) that Ms. Whitney Houston is on the verge of a comeback with her new album, I Look To You, which will be in stores on Sept. 1st. I'm so happy to see her back to her old self. She's looking beautiful these days and I know this record is going to be huge.

My favorite singer, Ms. Alicia Keys along with her boo Swizz Beats produced a couple songs on the album. I've been dying to hear new music from Alicia and she's pissing me off because she hasn't put out anything on yet. Hmmph =/

And if you've been following Whitney's career, you know Clive Davis had a huge role in it. He's been by Whitney's side through all the trials and tribulations in her life and he's such a prominent figure in the music industry. He's played a big role in the careers of Alicia Keys, Whitney, Jennifer Hudson, Kelly Clarkson, Leona Lewis, etc and I hope one day to add my name to the list =)

WET PANTIES WEDNESDAYYY!

Ayeeee!! I know I haven't been doing it for the past couple weeks and I'm sooo sorry babies. But I'm back with another shorty so let's get this WPW poppin off right! The third edition of Wet Panties Wednesday featuring Mickey.

awww keri =)

Ms. Hilson and her boo Errol. Apparently these two have been together for quite sometime. Damn...my brother's gonna be heartbroken lmao

HE'S HERE!

Congratulations to Nas and Kelis. Their son, Knight, was born yesterday morning. But unfortunately the drama between the two proud parents seemed to continue as Nas was not allowed into the delivery room until several hours later. For those who don't know, Nas & Kelis are divorcing and it's been quite messy. Apparently Nas hasn't paid any of the medical bills for Kelis and then unborn son and Nas says he isn't giving Kelis the amount of money she's demanding.

But this is supposed to be a happy occassion so Nas, Kelis, get the fuck over the drama for now. Your son's here.

"Shoe Obsession" Alexander Mcqueen Knee High gladiator stiletto sandal. fucking wow. i love this but i hate them at the same time because i'm not quite sure where i'd start when trying to put them on. i'm an extreme clutz and i'd probably mess these shoes up by putting my foot in the wrong hole. these shoes, NOT for amateurs.

throwback video

Now yall know back in the day, the Rugrats was the shit. I was in loveee with Tommy, Chucky, Phil & Lil. If yall loved the Rugrats, I know you remember this song for the Rugrats movie. Makes me wanna be a kid again...

Saturday, July 11, 2009

OH NO NO NO NO

HELL NO. that's all i have to say about that.



SIGH!


This is the biggest waste of time and energy I've ever seen. At first, I thought it was kinda cool but NOW? Now I think this shit is pure foolishness. This is the Snaefell Motorcycle Sidecar. It took about ten years to accomplish this (if you wanna call this dumb shit an accomplishment)Why would you honestly spend money on this creation? Either you want a motorcycle or you want a car...don't try to get the mixture of the two. People make no damn sense...

NOH8

The NOH8 Campaign has been garnering a lot of attention so I thought I'd feature it on my blog. If you don't know what that is, its a photo project and silent protest created by Adam Bouska and his partner Jeff Parshley in direct response to the passage of Proposition 8, which amends the Constitution to ban same-sex marriage. Here's a view photos by Adam Bouska featuring Dawn (formerly of Danity Kane), Steph Jones (Jordin, watch your back girl), Denyce Lawton (House of Payne) and the fabulous B. Scott. Support same-sex marriage!

CMB BITCH!

Last night had to be one of the funniest nights in CMB history. Me, Ari, Effie, and Sandi (even though she just went ghost on us lol) were on Skype just talking, trying to kill boredom. Man...did we! That conversation solidified how big a freak me and Ariel are. The conversation consisted of the following:

music, slow jams, sex, boys, stalking, sex, bad fucks, good fucks, virgins (cougheffiecough), reminiscing on past crushes/boyfriends, porn, and more sex!

Ari and me corrupted our poor Effie lmao poor girl is probably traumatized though after the porno I gave her to watch lmfaoooooooooo omg...that's my little sister though. Gotta corrupt someone, right?

CMB...love those girls.

Fun times at the beach (not me lol)


It's Halle and baby Nahla! Daddy Aubrey was there too. Nahla is getting soo big and she's so adorable. Kinda makes me want a baby...kinda.

Pharrell, we need to talk...


Them boots baby. 'Nuff said.

sigh....again...


I gave in and watched the MJ memorial service. I caught it right after J. Hud performed and I was fine until Usher touched the casket. I don't know why but after that, everything was making me cry. When Jermaine sang "Smile" I wanted to hug him. He looked so heartbroken and I hate seeing people in so much pain. But the real tear jerker came when Paris, MJ's daughter, spoke. She truly broke my heart. My prayers go out to the Jackson family, especially those kids.


Tuesday, July 7, 2009

she's my marilyn monroe.

I love this song. It's called "Marilyn Monroe" by Laze & Royal but honestly, Tyler Sherritt stole the song from them. The moment he started to sing I started smiling. His voice is so raw and I love it and he can play the guitar, which yall know is a big plus for me.


I'm sorry, Michael......

I can't do it. I can't watch. I know its live and all right now but I refuse to turn to any of those channels. I can honestly say I'm in denial. He can't be gone. He's Michael Jackson, the motherfuckin King of Pop. He wasn't supposed to die, he was supposed to grow old and gray...watch his fans have kids, grandkids...he was supposed to give us more good music...inspire even more generations to come...

Fuck. I'm a wreck right now. The fact that he's not here anymore didn't hit me until this very moment. As an artist myself, Michael Jackson was a big influence. I remember the first time I saw the "Thriller" video. I was in third grade and my teacher showed it to us in class. Me and my best friend Kenneth were scared shitless in the back of the classroom. I refused to watch that video until I was about fifteen. I remember learning the dances to "Remember the Time" and "Beat It" I thought I was the shit lol

But I truly fell in love with MJ when I heard "P.Y.T"..that was my JAM. That is the one MJ song that I just have to sing. There's no other option when that song is on. And then the video for "Scream" with Janet? What?! I knew I wanted to be an entertainer from that moment.

I don't want to remember the bad times or anything negative related to Michael. I'm just gonna remember all the good about him, jam out to "P.Y.T" and smile because I know he's finally free from all the pain, the hurt, the drama.

R.I.P Michael Jackson. Long live the King.

i love you. i hate you.

love is the most confusing thing in the world. i am such an emotional mess right now and that's not me at all. my dude just started his first tour in iraq so he won't be coming back to me until feb. 2010 so right now, im pissed/sad/hurt/lonely...just a wreck. and right now im in the hate phase of our love/hate relationship. this song right here just takes me to a place.

Lauren London preggo!





My girl Lauren London is indeed pregnant and she looks beautiful. All I wanna know now is who's the baby's father and if its a boy or a girl. Rumor is though that its Lil' Wayne's baby. Not sure if I believe it but only time (and Lauren) will tell.


Amber Rose







I freaking love this girl. I don't even have a legit reason why but I love Amber Rose. I think she is so beautiful and her style is outrageous. And who else do you know that dyes their hair blue for a day just to match their leggings? She's fierce, point blank.
